Perfect Skin All Day - Rimmel's New Lasting Finish Foundation

Rimmel's latest offering 'Lasting Finish 16Hr Foundation' promises to go the distance from day to night giving you fresh flawless skin all the way - perfect for partying straight after work on a Friday! It is a light weight liquid with added minerals to keep the skin looking healthy & is also non transferable onto clothes. Users have been giving it the thumbs up so far, with many saying it's one of the best foundations they have tried in a long time, in fact quite a few swapping their Estee Lauder Double Wear for this cheaper alternative saying that is gives a fantastic coverage but also feels very light on the skin. Many others also found that there was no need for concealer either & over all it made their skin look a lot more toned, plus it was easy to blend & it really did last all day. On the down side though the lightest shade 'Ivory' (comes in 5) is a little too dark for paler skin tones, but over all it seems to be a winner! (£5.99)

Eyebrows

Happy Fall!!!!!

This is my FaVoRiTe time of year and I am SO excited for all of the leaves, decorations, smells, weather and the overall feeling of fall. I am still wondering what to be for Halloween but I know that one year, at least, I want to incorporate something like this mask. How awesome would it be to create this look and have something romantic, whispy, feathery, fringy, or frilly and soft to go with it? What are your thoughts and ideas?

REALLY?!?!?

Okay, could you not???? No one wants to look like this or more impotantly AT this. Sometimes I get sad that I don't fit into the sizes that I used to. Even at a non teeny-bopper store I'll pick up the size that I am accustomed to wearing only to find it extremely snug (if I can even get them on). I know it shouldn't make me sad to go up a size but sometimes it does. Well now I have a treatise on this up sizing effect (as it will now be known)......I AM OKAY, I AM STILL PRETTY and by golly if I have to go up a size just to make it look that much better on my body I WILL!!!!! Let's just say it over and over to ourselves when we're having trouble. Who cares what size you wear right? It's all about how flattering it makes your body look. And who cares if something is in or out of style, if it looks good on you and you can pull it off then ROCK IT!!!!!!!! Sorry, this picture seemed to have brought up some unresolved conflicts in my mind. =) You guys are BeAuTiFuL!!!!!!!
